Linus Torvalds has released Linux 2.6.24. "The release is out there (both git trees and as tarballs/patches), and for the next week many kernel developers will be at (or flying into/out of) LCA in Melbourne, so let's hope it's a good one. Nothing earth-shattering happened since -rc8, although the new set of ACPI blacklist entries and some network driver updates makes the diffstat show that there was more than the random sprinkling of one-liners all over the tree. But most of it really is one-liners, and mostly not very exciting ones at that."

Well. In short, here is one person who's always used vanilla kernels, as long as I'm using Linux overall. And I'm not alone. So yes, new vanilla releases are indeed newsworthy for some people out there besides distro devs and packagers.
